For once mine has electrics installed this time too, not that you can see them.

Working from home still so I walked down by the frozen lake on lunch. The ground is like mush from all the snow melting. 2 weeks below zero and 60 today. Feels great out!

The "the diamond one" painted the chassis...i shaped it

Somehow, this just seems appropriate.

Finished... mostly. I'd love to have a Gonzo SCR pack to compliment the green Wimpy stocker if anyone has one. Thanks to coxbros1 for rewiring the Novak 410-M5 and TheDiamondOne for restoring the body. Seabass painted the body. It came with it when I bought it from him. Looking forward to running it.

Thanks everyone...sorry i haven't been very active lately...going thru some health issues...should be good to go in a few weeks tho

Wow, coxbros1! You certainly ran away with this one! Nice build now you'll need to find out how to top the Yoke!

Build it, paint it box art, put some Tamiya wheels and tires on it, run it once, then shelve it. I had one when I was 13 in 1989, it was super fun! A friend got an Avante as a Birthday present and was talking all kinds of smack of how he was going to drag my ass. By the time he gets it built and com...
